HATE you? Nope...that's way too much work.

Dislike you enough that I'd prefer if you just went away?
Absolutely.

You seem to be one of the biggest troll posters we've had in many years.
 
If they knew what a Rat Snitch you were I think your numbers would be even worse

People know who I am here, how I operate, I'm content with pretty much everything I've ever done on this forum. You're just annoyed because more people like me than you thought.
 
honestly, i don't understand what everyone's beef it with you. i don't know why everyone has to give you such a hard time. it's pretty childish and stupid.

i'm indifferent in the sense that you're not exactly a friend, per se, and i definitely have nothing against you or dislike you in any way. i don't know why anyone would, unless they're only doing it because it's a bandwagon thing to do.

Appreciated, I'm more than happy with indifference over this irrational hatred everyone feels towards me.

I find it childish and stupid also, but it is their right to feel the way they do, I'm not going to argue with them about it.
 
i refuse to go out of my way to dislike anyone. with that said, can someone please pm me reasons/examples of why he's so disliked? i'm really curious... it just doesn't seem to make sense to me.
 
Hal... why are you doing this? I think you're a glutton for punishment. :\
I like you, but how do you think this thread is going to turn out? Do you have a bet with someone over it?

And btw, when you bold sentences like that it makes me think a mod did it. 😱

Christ on a pogo stick! He does it for the attention. You have to realize what an attention whore he is, like him or not. The poll results don't matter, only the attention matters. He won't change:thumbsdown:

He's like Trident. Any attention, even negative is better than none.

It's because:

I post a hell of a lot.
I have controversial views on things like gun ownership or abortion
I have a tendency to ask questions in threads that then cause people to argue with me, thus derailing the thread
I don't get riled up by insults and people find that irritating.
People mistake my views on things as deliberately provocative
I'm bisexual (people seem to find that irritating)
I'm bipolar (people seem to dislike that fact about me, and use it as an insult about me)
People get into trouble when they hurl insults at me, but I don't get into trouble because I don't insult them back most of the time.
I have a poor memory and people find it irritating when I post the same arguments twice or more.
Oh! And people think I enjoy negative attention.
Also, people don't like being disagreed with.

Edit: I'm also new to this forum stuff, so I often don't understand "internet speak" (at least at first) as well as some of the Americanisms that get posted here.

... and this matters how?

i mean, honestly, what's it matter? so he is creating this page for attention. big whoop. why are you here if you're so opposed to it? you're just feeding it.

live and let live. i don't see how his attention-seeking imposes on anyone's life in any way. you've got the option of not posting in his threads or commenting to his posts.

You forgot the part about how you troll the fuck out of people and then run crying to the mods like a little baby when they insult you.

- yeah, you definitely post way too much, but it's not my life to dictate what you do and don't do
- so do many others in the forums
- maybe send the question via pm?
- ok? i don't think that's a reason why people would dislike you...
- even if you're being provocative, that's your point of view
- pffft i can almost guarantee no one cares that you're bi
- that's a little fucked up if that's true
- kudos. that's the way it should be.
- i can understand that being annoying. maybe if you cut down on your posts, you'd remember some of your conversations.
- from my point of view, this thread seems to validate that you like the negative attention... kinda like trying to be a martyr or something.

at any rate, personally, i don't see any of the reasons above reason enough to dislike you. i can see how people may find it pretty annoying, but i don't see why they'd need to respond to it or get so worked up over it enough to verbalize a strong distrust for you.
 
Baiting = Trolling

maybe it just seems like baiting? i dunno. maybe he's just that controversial in his point of view and feels the right to express his controversial opinion.

i dunno, man, i just figure if it's so controversial that you're just like, "wow, wtf? i've gotta respond to this idiot," don't. or maybe do and try to figure out why he feels the way he feels about something, but then just let it go...

i dunno. i guess i'm just trying to harbor some peace lol

Good advice, next time gadget.

- ok? i don't think that's a reason why people would dislike you...
- even if you're being provocative, that's your point of view

It is, this is my argument.

- pffft i can almost guarantee no one cares that you're bi

You'd be surprised people are constantly telling me that I just pretend to be bi so I can gain attention or that I'm secretly gay.

- that's a little fucked up if that's true

You're telling me.

- kudos. that's the way it should be.

Agreed.

- i can understand that being annoying. maybe if you cut down on your posts, you'd remember some of your conversations.

Alas I have an actual medical problem with my memory that I'm looking into with some doctors at the moment.

- from my point of view, this thread seems to validate that you like the negative attention... kinda like trying to be a martyr or something.

That's certainly one way of looking at it, but it wasn't my intention.

at any rate, personally, i don't see any of the reasons above reason enough to dislike you. i can see how people may find it pretty annoying, but i don't see why they'd need to respond to it or get so worked up over it enough to verbalize a strong distrust for you.

I feel the same, but alas we are in the minority in this respect, perhaps someone who truly hates me could give you a better insight.

So he is free to post his opinions and I should live and let live but if I don't like them I shouldn't post? Go fuck yourself. I'll post what I want.
